Fire in the Hole, the first single, exemplifies the strength and passion of Odel?s song writing, while Mantos Santos infuses a Latin beat to the reggae pulse. Signs (Ballad) mixes powerful choral harmonies with the influences of 70?s rock bands. Mind & Body Sold is tightly packed with guitar licks and soulful vocals bonded together by the rhythms of reggae?s drum and bass.
